Hi! Stranger here. 👋🏻 My interest is piqued! In fact, I was mindlessly scrolling Substack in bed and came across your first post after one of the good days with my 6 year old and two year old. Today, I had one of those super validating moments where you realize you are truly making a difference in your kids lives. Like where you are the only one in the whole world who can truly understand them and shape them and it is the most noble purpose one could pursue. But, don’t worry, I’ll still be here existentially questioning every other aspect of my life because apparently that is the human condition. Anyway, keep writing. Based on the 4 essays I’ve read, you’ve got things worth saying. 👊🏻

Heather, goodness gracious, thank you so much for reading and for the kind words! This comment is going to be keeping me going through the next few times I question myself.

And you have my daps and respect for your work as a mother of your 6 and 2 year olds. I suspect it really is as profound as you think it is. 👊🏻

That is a beautifully written metaphor! It inspires me both as the person on the bench and as the unknown gym bro!

May you be ever ferocious with your reps and liberal with your daps.
